Website & Navigation Tip

I have now posted over 80 story vignettes on my website. Many of my vignette writings exceed the common “less than 1,000 word count” typically presented in this writing style. My writings have been evolving over time and I am proud of this evolution. I have now recognized that there are many potential publishing projects developing in this website, both in the fiction and non-fiction genres.

Should I consider actively seeking Literary Agent representation?

To easily navigate my website, select My Writings in the Menu Bar to be directed to the current list of my vignette writings. These writings of my memories appear in the Parts and Eras from when they occurred. Select the Vignette Title link in the Era that captures your interests to learn more about this part of my story.

  • Bahamas Vacation 2024 – Part ONE…

    Travel Day – Every summer our family heads south for vacation in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and then over to the Abaco Islands in the Bahamas. Our daughter’s Grandparents have a beach house on Green Turtle Cay, Abaco. My wife and I designed the house in 2007 for them, and we were married on the island…

  • Writers Block…

    I have not been able to publish any new writings for several weeks now. My apologies. Yes, “writers block” really does happen, and I have been experiencing this impact recently while trying to write the vignettes about my vacation during the summer of 2024. This writing effort became challenging after I returned from this year’s…

  • Why I Write…

    When I started my personal story blog website, my writing was a therapeutic exercise to reconcile with everything going on in my world at that time.

  • Lunch At The Bunny’s Place…

    Well, my birthday party this year was awesome. And after the party I now have more new friends and a new best friend. I think that this is the time in my life when I discovered what a best friend is and what an inseparable bond feels like. In life, you only get so many…

  • A New Friend…

    We are all moved in now. From what I remember, my clothing selection was small and not well suited for the desert heat. I did have some shorts and T-shirts, and a bathing suit which was basically an old pair of shorts. It was my first full day in this new place. My mom was…

Introduction…

I chose a blog platform to share my story of recovery and change over a prolonged period of time since my story cannot be captured in a simple writing as it is still evolving. As my story continues to evolve, I plan to reveal my story in vignettes from past memories and from recent activities. Using this format, what I am looking to do first is to share this life changing event that could have ended my time here in this world along with my recovery and new discoveries about myself. I will then insert the setting of new life goals and interlace past memories that might help in your understanding of where I have come from, and where my rebuilding and new discoveries may take me.

So, this is the first time I am sharing my story of recovery and new beginnings after experiencing a life changing event. While I am not sure this story will be of interest to anyone, I feel that sharing my story might help to encourage others to know that how you respond to life changing events will help you with your vision of where your future can go. Please join me in my journey of recovery, change and new beginnings.
